Not a mystery at all..but still good

If you picked up this book expecting a good mystery like The Rosary Murders, you will be greatly disappointed. However, if you're interested in a pretty decent character study of 4 young people preparing to enter the religious life, then you might enjoy it. In the last 10-12 years, Kienzle really hasn't written mysteries but rather character studies set against a Catholic background. Taken on that level, this is one of his best in the last few years.

The Gathering

How do you explain growing up Catholic to your non-Catholic spouse, friend?This book evokes the feelings and isolation of being raised Catholic.It is written in a timeline any baby-boomer or younger will relate to. The ending is a tribute to William Kienzle's life. The story circle back to the beginnings of William Kienzle's choice of vocation and leaves the reader knowing why he left the priesthood.The question remains where and what do today's Catholic's do with their faith.Thank you,William Kienzlefor all the insights about beinging Catholic

A quietly brilliant, not-to-be-missed mystery

The Gathering is the latest novel featuring Father Robert Koesler, a compassionate Roman Catholic priest with a brilliant insight into solving mysteries of murder most foul. Koesler's adolescent years are brought to light in this tale of deception, internal struggles with faith, and how Koesler found his calling to serve... and seventy years later, one of those closest to him is dead. The Gathering is another quietly brilliant, not-to-be-missed mystery from the pen of William X. Kienzle.
